“Have mercy! This is seriously good pie. Perfect crust and amazing sauce! If you are looking for a good slice, checkout Lil' Cucci’s Pizzeria!
The owners, Joe and Sherri, treat everyone like family. Super friendly, reasonable prices, and delicious food!“

“I was expecting the meal to be good, but not THAT good. Everything was outstanding. The chili crisp burrata was a must-get appetizer as well as the roasted olives which were so warm and buttery… chefs kiss. Both pasta dishes we got were perfectly cooked, brilliantly flavored, and proportioned beautifully.
Also a huge shoutout to the bar for having $5 mocktails! The bartenders made me the most delicious mocktail I may have ever had.“

“Food is really delicious and big portions… Very good prices as well!“

“Great local, family owned restaurant to use for catering events. Easy to work with, VERY reasonable pricing, delivered at no charge, and, of course, delicious food!“

“They have very good Chicago pizza. It’s the best pizza I have ever had. Best place to order pizza from in my opinion. Get the Chicago. It will make you smack your grandma.“

“The best SWVA has to offer“

“I placed a special order for their cannolis after various recommendations and they were beyond a hit! What a great pair of owners in a quaint spot in downtown Roanoke. Extremely reasonably priced for amazing, fresh, handmade, REAL food. I will definitely return to try more!“

“Perfect spot to kick back and enjoy a drink. Also they share a kitchen with the pizzeria next door so you can get delicious food also. Bartenders always are top tier and know exactly how to make the perfect drinks. Every holiday is such a vibe and they go all out with the theme drinks and decorations“

“I walked in and was greeted with a warm smile and genuine friendliness. The best pizza crust (which is one of my main ways of rating a pizza), plus generous & fresh toppings (so tasty)! My favorite is the Margherita pizza! Service was quick and highly recommend!“

“Fantastic pizza! Great service!“

“Got just a cheese slice which is nice. Nice crisp. Minimal flop. Good under carriage. Service was great very nice server. Franks is the closest to true NY style ive had here. Most places are either a sloppy floppy mess or 2 inches thick like a casserole and still doughy besides the crust. But in Frank's i trust.“

“If you love a local Italian place that isn’t pretentious but has great food this is your place. Ate here tonight with my husband and toddler. It wasn’t very busy for dine in which was great for us. Food came out in a timely manner and was hot and delicious. We had the meatballs to start and my sometimes picky toddler was asking for more! She had the pasta with Alfredo and was a fan. I had a calzone which was HUGE (and delicious) and my husband had what he describes as the best Philly cheesesteak ever. We cannot wait to go back and try the pizza. As for the service it was very good and the people who own it and work there are so kind and welcoming.“

“Stopped overnight in Roanoke on our family road trip vacation, and had supper here. The food was awesome! Great grinders and pizza, and the staff was super friendly! Definitely hitting them up again next year when we roll through!“

“Pizza is amazing and it will definitely be a stop every time I visit my daughter“

“Went there this evening. They said new management. Hmm! Well, the service was prompt & thorough. Very efficient! Knew my needs before I did. I got a calzone & my partner got spaghetti w/meatballs. Both were excellent!!! Portions were great. (We both brought home plenty)

We will go back & would highly recommend it.“
